Photographer's Note

A rig study.

The bark Rickmer Rickmers arrived in Hamburg in 1983 and her appearance was the highlight on the 794th birthday celebrations of Hamburg harbor, held every year around the 7th May.
It was bought from the association "Tallships for Hamburg" and restored to remember the history of Hamburg as a "Navy"-Town.

Nowadays the ship itself is primarily a museum, but it is also possible to visit the ship‘s restaurant on the second deck.

Almost I would like to see more of the rigging, or not so tight a crop, if that was possible without adding any other elements to the photo. The gradient sky was cooperative for you that day, and I do like the size of the flag in proportion to the photo - so perhaps more rigging would make the flag too small. Maybe this helps?
